Default Working While Going Through Physical Therapy
My question involves workers compensation law for the state of: Iowa

I was able to continue working but I have to go through Physcial Therapy for the injury. Is my employer required to pay for the PT even though I didn't miss any time off?

If you are receiving physical therapy for a work-related injury, the cost of therapy should be covered by worker's compensation.
